Use of Java packages in JavaScript

[Raghav Sam]

We have a browser-based application in which Java packages are used in JavaScript. This works perfectly in Netscape(4.7x).
Example:
var elm = java.math.BigDecimal(1000000000000).(some function call).
However now we have to run the application in IE (6.0). IE does not recognise the package call.
Is there any workaround for this? There are more than 500 places where this is used(lot of rework).
This is urgent and any suggestions are more than welcome.

Also there are programs that can replace code on multiple pages so it will not be so hard of a conversion..
